Is now a good time to scoop a 980m lappy or should I wait for a Pascal 1080m lappy?
>>54905733
I would wait.
While 980M is nice, i have a feeling the 1080M is going to be amazing.
Wait for Pascal
>>54905733
>Is now a good time to scoop a 980m
doubt it. the prices of the 980 barely dropped, which means you should wait some more

>Gaming laptop
I don't know your personal circumstances but this is almost certainly a bad buy.

980m / 1080m are the new standards for performance. If you want to buy a shitty macbook that cant even run opengl 4.4 then go ahead and waste your money.
>>54905949
980m isn't even equivalent to a desktop 970. Closer to a 960.
I'm sure it's the new standard for /laptop/ performance, so I guess you win gold in the special olympics. Hooray! I'm very proud of you.
>1080m
No comment except that the real 1080 is a 180W card. If you think the 1080m will be even comparable, you don't understand basic thermodynamics.

nobodys talking desktop, chum. We buy laptops for their portability.

From what's been said recently, there won't be a 1070m/1080m, and instead they'll just chuck in the desktop versions with slightly lower TDPs and voltages.

if you don't have a laptop you won't be able to do your work in places other than your home
>>54906438
sysadmin herre, I don't need a laptop to do my work, everything with ssh is good.
I don't need office or any other slave wage software
>>54906490
system admins are useless, get a real job developing new stuff pls
>>54906563
This is like saying garbage men are useless
try living for two months without your garbages collected
>inb4 I don't have that in my country
living in a shithole does not count
>>54906670
i live in a major city in america and i bring my own trash to the transfer station.
>>54905733
>lappy
>>54906709
do you also bring the water to your home by yourself?
>>54906736
i can put outside water into a filtration system and drink it or i can just boil it if i'm /out/
>>54906848
yes go ahead and do that. just tell me, how long will that take you?
dont answer it. just think about how long everything else would take if you had to do it all by yourself
>>54906863
>yes go ahead and do that. just tell me, how long will that take you?
minutes. I go /out/ all the time. What's your point?
>>54906900
haha it will take you minutes to gather enough water to drink/wash yourself and filter it?
>>54906916
what is your point if you even have one, autist?
>>54906932
maybe you should learn to read? >>54906863
>>54906952
maybe he's not so rushed that he doesn't mind filtering rainwater
off grid living is nice and relaxing
>>54905733
You sound like a retard so definitely buy the 980m "lappy" even though 1080m is a full 1080
